 my new ride
just got it today :P im so F*CKING happy, its my "first" car (in the sense that ive been driving a 95 aerostar xlt, but it was my dads :P) 96 probe se with 97k miles, fully loaded, tilt, auto (im to F*CKING lazy and have no one to teach me stick) only a 4 bannger but meh at 24 miles to the gallon ill take it (hehe and its american made) the inside is F*CKING perfect (minus a seatbelt cover) and the outside has no F*CKING dents/dings or anything guy who had it before me did a bunch of work (new headgasket, water pump, thermostat, sparkplugs and wires, and some engine work done) only thing is wednesday i have to tweek a few things (speaker replacements, its also idling a bit fast, around 1500-2000 though every now and then it drops to like 500 (think the throttle is sticking) so i just have to spray that and maybe do brake pads....nothing a few hours wont cure) i think in a week or two i might put a cold air intake on it but who knows. if i have some extra cash lying around why not eh? |

Nice ride. For your idling problem, IIRC Ford uses an acutator to control idle speed. It is located on the throttle body. Best bet is to hop on a forum..

I would recommend getting a real service manual from Ford. Chilton and their ilk print alot of wrong info. I found out the hard way when I first started messing with cars. 700-800 RPM's is about the right idle speed for an automatic. Also grab a can or two of SeaFoam (AutoZone, and Pep-Boys), take one can and dump it in a full gas tank(or dump it in on an empty tank just as you fill up), and drip about a half can down the throttle body while revving the engine (until you have a nice smoke show) to clean out any junk in the combustion chamber. http://www.seafoamsales.com/motorTuneUpTechGas.htm The stuff rocks! _________________ Pred threw a bunker party.
